It sounds like Gennaro Gattuso will attempt to shake-up his lineup by introducing Mattia Caldara against AS Roma. And well, with Milan’s home opening coming against a strong Roma team that also clawed back from two goals down to get a result, some changes will be needed on defense to hold back a fairly attack-minded Roma club. Edin Dzeko will be a tough test, but if Milan are going to get anything from this season, they’ve got to hang with the big boys sooner or later.
